Sonic the Hedgehog speeds into action with a special Free Comic Book Day edition! In “Evolution of A Hero,” you’ll get a look back at the long-running hit comic series that has been thrilling fans for over 15 years! What’s the connection between Sonic and the Freedom Fighters? Who are Shadow the Hedgehog and Knuckles the Echidna? What’s the deal with that Robotnik guy, and what’s going on in the series now? You might even get a special sneak-peek into the world of Sonic after the epic issue #200. Whether you’re a new reader getting up to speed or a veteran enjoying a trip down memory lane, this is one issue you just can’t miss! Fan-favorites Ian Flynn and Tracy Yardley! bring the fast-paced excitement to life.

In this special Free Comic Book day edition, we take a look back at the history of the Sonic comic series. We learn the full story about Sonic and his friends and foes, plus Knuckles and Shadow. Also included is a cover gallery of every issue and spinoff title, and even a small sneak peak at what's in store after #200. Whether you're new to the world of Sonic, or just a long time fan willing to take a trip down memory lane, this is one book you cannot miss.

This cover mirrors the cover for Sonic the Hedgehog #0 and #¼ where Robotnik chases Sonic in his Egg-O-Matic over a bridge with both characters in the same pose (with Eggman using his opposite fist and Sonic's legs blur as he runs on this issue's cover).

This is the last Free Comic Book Day issue published in the first decade of the 2000's.
